Question

If AB is parallel to CD and the slope of CD is -5 what is the slope of AB

Answer 1

The slope of AB is also -5. This is because parallel lines have equal slopes. 

Answer 2

Answer:

Slope of AB will  be $-5$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: AB is parallel to CD and the slope of CD si $-5$.

To find: The slope of AB.

Solution: It is given that AB is parallel to CD and the slope of CD si $-5$.

We know that the slope of the two parallel lines is always same and will never intersect.

Thus, if AB is parallel to CD and the slope of CD is $-5$, then the slope of AB will also be $-5$.

Thus, slope of AB will  be $-5$.
